hypothesis according to which we can draw a parallel between social and cultural domination has been intensely discussed during the past decades. In this presentation I will discuss the relevance of this framework when applied to “lowbrow” forms of culture.
In this case, what are the social conditions for cultural domination to exert its effects? To address this question I will reflect on the social organisation of cultural and artistic activities, of its impact on the definition of the value of cultural goods,
and therefore on the conditions under which “lowbrow” culture can escape cultural domination and obtain a certain degree of symbolic autonomy. This will be the occasion to discuss the ambiguous role of cultural policies and institutions in this process, and
to address the sociological debate on the uses of the notions of worlds, fields and networks. To illustrate these theoretical debates and propositions, I will draw on empirical research conducted in France on cultural policies and amateur music’.

<p class="MsoNormal" align="left" style="text-align:left"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;line-height:150%;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">Pierre Bourdieu’s writings on the cultural field represent a powerful account of the social space of creative works
and cultural vocations. Offering a dynamic vision of the relations between cultural tastes, creative vocations and education systems, one in which the embodied temporality of actors is key to understanding the economy of practice, the cultural field represents
an impressively integrated and generative model for understanding the social terrain of cultural activity. This account has supported major national studies of cultural consumption and production, as well as a major alternative approach to the topic of cultural
work to that of the ‘knowledge society’ and ‘creative class’ theses.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" align="left" style="text-align:left"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;line-height:150%;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">While the cultural field has clearly been productive for empirical inquiry, researchers have inevitably raised questions
about the limits of cultural field theory. To what extent are the dynamics of contemporary cultural fields competitive, as per the descriptions offered by Bourdieu; and even if so, to what extent are the dynamics of discrete cultural fields sufficient as an
explanation for observed cultural practices? What role might state agencies have played, both now and in the past, in developing and sustaining the structure of the field, including the variable relations between the autonomous and market-oriented subfields,
through instruments such as public arts funding and broadcasting? How have contested prescriptions of distinction arising from within arts and cultural fields themselves operated to limit action, and what legacies of this remain in the present? What effects
might the recent policy emphasis on ‘creativity’ across a range of domains - from economic development through to social inclusion - have had on the field? What impact are new technologies having on the economies of creative production and consumption?
And how should researchers take into account the effects of migration and transnational cultural markets?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
